axeeugene:I haven't clicked the link, thank goodness, because my mind is full enough of images of teratomas my medical student/doctor girlfriend showed me years ago. It didn't work out between us...I wonder what part those pictures played?

I know a guy who has a prosthetic eyeball. Cat sometimes plays with it and knocks it under the dresser. But I digress.

At some point in the past, he had to get a skin graft in his eye socket. They took skin from his thigh to do the graft. It took really well, and the hair follicles survived. Every once in a while he has To trim back the hair in his eye socket or it grows so long it shows in the corner of his eye.CSS

Yeah, I'm an optometrist, I've seen worse. Maybe not this week, but I've seen it.

Yeah, the pic doesn't look that bad. Heck, it doesn't look much worse than say, a hairy plica. Somehow I expected to see a bloody melanoma with a was of hair that looks like what you fished out of your bathtub drain based on the fark comments.
